Yeh but their fan base is mad up of wankers and some of us aren't over the Macken halfway line goal yet - so less of that please...... ;-),

I know, but that wasn’t this season.West Ham went down with 42 points.
Neither was the invincible season. I never mentioned this season, just that is is possible for a team to be invincible and get relegated.I know, but that wasn’t this season.

Never suggested it wasn’t; I was simply referring to the incredibly low number of points that will keep the third from bottom team up this season.Neither was the invincible season. I never mentioned this season, just that is is possible for a team to be invincible and get relegated.
Cheated against Portsmouth, Pires has even admitted he dived otherwise Pompey would have beaten them.Is going unbeaten that great ? It sounds amazing but if you look at it, 12 draws wasn't it.
Would a team that drew every match and got relegated be as great as that arsenal side ? Both go unbeaten.
Should be an question mark against that "Invincible" tag.
Only one true "Invincibles" and that would be Preston North End, unbeaten in league and won FA cup double, did not concead a goal in any FA cup match that season.

Don't forget this is Arsenal.I couldn't believe what i was listening to today when Keown said "There is no greater achievement in football than being unbeaten throughout a season"!!
No mention of City's Treble winning or 100 points seasons.
They're not exactly the most ambitious club in the division. Arsene Wenger would often refer to how finishing in the top four felt like winning a trophy.
If you celebrate that level of mediocrity it stands to reason you'd think going unbeaten over a season is a big deal.

Totally agree. I posted because, for him, it is a change of tone. He usually manages to shoe horn Sportwashing and all the other BS into his bitter ramblings. Perhaps he's rattled by the letter rumours? Hope so.They don't even have to use all these expressions, they could just use the factual "owned by a member of the AD royal family" or "owned by the Vice President of the United Arab Emirates", both of which convey the meaning they are trying to get over. "State-linked" is so weak it means next to nothing. State-owned to State-sponsored to State-financed to State-supported to State-linked isn't the gotcha they think it is, other than in their tiny minds. Just give it up and be factual, for Christ's sake.
